6 speed automatically controlled manual transmission (BVMP6):On the 308, the automatically controlled manual transmission of the "MCP" type represents a completely new product offering in the Peugeot range.Combined with the 1.6-litre HDi DPFS engine developing 80 kW (approx. 110 hp), this 6-speed automatically controlled manual transmission, allowing the clutch pedal to be eliminated, is a real alternative to conventional transmissions in particular due to its extra cost measured by comparison with known manual gearboxes. Responsive, it will particularly appeal to drivers who like to control gear changes, which they can do using either the gear lever or the levers behind the steering wheel. Intelligent, it meets the requirements of drivers who favour stress-free journeys by shifting the gears itself, although the driver may, of course, take over control at any point.
